Currently, I am in Nepal residing at a Buddhist Monastery high in the mountains where I sit in meditation for twenty hours a day. The monks are very kind and speak no English and I speak no monk. For twenty hours each day, since I have been here, I meditate on the virtue of patience. As I have mentioned before I am not very good with this patience thing. During my meditations the monks have me chant "May I be at peace knowing that Finn will be here when he wannnnts tooooooo".
It's not working.
Actually, I am still here in Friday Harbor. I spend twenty hours a day staring at my cell phone waiting for it to ring. Yesterday I was standing in line at the Post Office when the phone rang and I was dancing around because I couldn't get the phone out of my pocket. It was Samantha telling me that we could not pay our water bill on line.
And yesterday was the 4th, Finns due date. No Finn.
During the day and night my thoughts go to Angela and how she must be feeling with this baby in the waiting mode. You go girl!! I am right there with you, though I suppose Angela is wishing Finn would be born in a much different way than my wish.
Back to my chanting.
